I was perusing the latest list of Forbes Richest People this morning. I really feel sorry for the poor fellows at the bottom of the list. Can you imagine, working hard to build a fortune (or just inheriting a boatload), developing an ultra competitive spirit and growing your wealth over your entire life…only to rank as ONLY the 300th or 400th richest person in the country? Come on!
I really do feel sorry for them. I especially feel sorry for all the chumps out there with only a 9-figure fortune. They won’t even show up on the Forbes 400 Richest Americans list . They might as well just give up; or at least buy Donald Trump’s “How to Get Rich.” Maybe they’ll find some tips to get them back on the path to success.
Then there are the 11 folks on the list age 40 and younger. I wonder how many times they had to deal with people telling them “you aren’t old enough to do that.”?

Actually… I think the 40 year old and under category of peeps are tired of being cornered for dates and/or propositions. Lord knows when the list was published last year I perused to see who was available and who wasn’t ;)
Just being a wise business woman!!
HMMM…I wonder if Margaret Magerko is single…… ;)
